pam, this project you did for your friend is simply stunning! the gods must have been favoring both of you with such fantastic "steals"! i love the bed, bedding, well, just everything. i also have ordered a gray upholstered headboard from WM and it's just waiting for me to gut and re-do my daughter's old bedroom...hopefully soon!

looking forward to all the sources and i'll be pinning this room fo' sho!

The Queen of Craigslist, you are!! Pam this room is so soft and lovely, you did such an amazing job. I love the white from top to bottom, with that little pop of pretty coral. And your CL finds!! WOW on that black dining room hutch completely transformed into a TV cabinet with all that storage, it's stunning!!!! Thank you for sharing how this beautiful room came together and that a room like this doesn't have to cost $$$$$$$$$$! I hope your friend enjoys this retreat so very much!

Dang girl, you are the queen of craigslist! Every one of those pieces is so ideal for that room! Love the pop of color and the various details you added to pull it all together. Your friend is one lucky lady to get design help from one of the best. Bravo to you both!!!

Pam you are a genius and she is so lucky to have you as a friend and stealth designer!! I cannot believe your CL finds!! Wow they are all amazing and my favorite is that whirte buffet- gorgeous and such a statement! Congrats on your huge sucess friend! Xo Nancy

THis is GORGEOUS! Love it all! Especially the new painted media cabinet! One question- it looks as if the view of the tv is blocked by the door configuration. It looks as if the middle door is stationary? Or did you figure out a way to work around that? I would like to do something similar and would appreciate any input :)

Pam, you absolutely outdid yourself. I couldn't agree more with Kim - I think this may just be my favorite makeover of yours yet! You friend must be absolutely giddy over the stunning space she now has. Love every last bit of it!

Damn girl....I want that room! It is full of goodness....not sure where to start! Moving the bed was brilliant. That TV cabinet and those chests were such a score. I love the addition of the coral color....Pam you did a super fantastic job on this room!!!

Maison Blanche - You smart cookie! I'll be posting more about it, but it is stationary, we've had a professional look at it and will be hinging it to the door next to it, but he couldn't get us on his schedule before the reveal.

Pam, there are no words! You are a star designer! I can't believe how perfectly those nightstands fit beside the bed, and I'm SO glad your client trusted you to add the pops of color, they're just right! Loving the gold trim on the doors, I plan to try the same thing on my pantry. Pretty sure I would cozy up in that room and never leave! Well done, my friend!

Pam, the space is simply stunning! Hard to believe it's the same room! You stretched your budget in an amazing way - those drexel campaign chests - so so good! Your client must be thrilled with her beautiful new bedroom. XX jana

I gasped!!! Simply Stunning!!!!!....you are the Craigslist Queen...i have staring at all the beautiful details of which you are also the "Queen" of!!...Cannot believe that headboard is from Wally World...amazing!And so glad that she did not want the brown beast as that cabinet is fabulous....Another magnificent One Room Challenge!!!

That "before" room was so ugly, dreary and in desperate need of an "ex-orcism"! I know, because I own it! I am the lucky and blessed friend who received Pam's amazing room makeover. I could not love it more! It is bright and cheery, but at the same time a serene and peaceful retreat. I'm pinching myself and can't believe that it's my room. I can't thank you enough, sweet friend. I am overwhelmed by your kindness, support, and off-the-chart talent. You are simply the best! (Thank you to sweet Erika too!).

I am so impressed. While yes, the space is gorgeous, I'm amazed that you did all this with Walmart, Craigslist..etc. Basically, it is the product of genius designing and styling. The re-arrangement of the bed was so smart, and those nightstands!! Excellent job, bringing design to all..and especially for your sweet friend. Happy she has a sanctuary of her own.

Outrageously jealous of your mad CL scouting skills. First those Drexel campaign chests and then that to die for armoire - which is perfect in that space. Super smart to move the bed! What a transformation a little paint and placement makes! Glad your client trusted your instincts b/c the colors are gorgeous. And don't get me started on that greek key trim on the fur throw. Beautifully done on a budget - major SKILLZ!!!!

I'm blown away by your Craigslist finds. What strokes of luck! Totally inspiring to see another designer's project consist almost entirely of thrifted bargains...that's what my ORC space is about too! This bedroom is beautiful and tasteful. Love the neutral+coral color combo. And I believe EVERY room needs a touch of leopard. Bravo!

Pam, what am I going to do with you? This bedroom makeover is sooo good! I know it must bring a smile to your friend's face every time she walks in that room. Can't pick a favorite - I love it all! You are awesome.

Pam, this is absolutely beautiful! Kudos to you for pulling it off and for doing this for your dear friend! I did my master bedroom last ORC round & came across the same Walmart fabric headboard with nail head trim. You would never know it was Walmart because it's so fab, especially with the fabric and bedding you choose! I love how airy the room feels and those campaign night stand with the lamps, SCORE! I have to say I loved how you transformed the china cabinet and I'm still waiting for the perfect one to show up on Craigslist for me to repaint for my home office! It's been a pleasure participating in ORC with you!

This bedroom is super gorgeous! I love all your craiglist finds especially the campaign chests! Adore the pop of colors too! Very well-thought out room, I am swooning over every details! You did a marvelous job, Pam!

Hi Pam,Your friend must be over the moon to have such a beautiful room. I was in her shoes at one time. To have a room like this to retire to at the end of the day, would have been a God send!Heck...I'm remarried & I'd still love a room like this. Your hard work just proves you don't have to spend a ton of money to have a beautiful space. She's lucky to have you as her friend.

OMG!! I love it! You had me at gold trim!! hehehe. Beautiful, beautiful. I can't get over the amazing bedside tables and the dresser+cabinet....and painted in white...perfection. The Craig's List scores are just amazing. What a beautiful job. Congratulations!!

Pam!! You did an AMAZING job! So many beautiful elements that make the room feel as though it was pulled together over time - such a great, 'collected' look. I love the idea of using a china cabinet as a media unit - way better than the usual! And I can't even believe that headboard is from Walmart! Shut. UP! Wonderful job - you have such a great eye!

Of course I am not surprised in the least, but this space you've created is just stunning. I can't even pick a favorite detail, but the transformation of the black cabinet to the white is pretty fabulous! And the gold detail on the closet...love!

I am so impressed with how this room went from drab to fab! I love the layers of neutrals and gold with the pop of coral. actually, I'm digging this color scheme for our room! please come do mine next!! amazing CL finds, per usual! gorgeous, gorgeous, gorgeous.

speechless! this is an absolutely gorgeous space to say the least. i remember being really impressed with your CL finds a few weeks back. every single angle shows me something else to adore. what a sweet thing to do for your friend, i bet she loves it! great job!

I'm so blown away Pam!!!!!! Another fanta-bulous job dear! this room definitely doesn't look like it was done on a budget, it's so elegant and love the mix of patterns all around! Can you do my room? pretty please, hope we lived close by each other, would definitely give you full hand in re-decorating any room in my house! Love it all!

First, sorry I’m just now getting over here! I hit publish on my room and ran out the door on vacation. Secondly…what a transformation!!! I love every little thing...that bed (walmart!!!), the lamps, those benches are gorgeous!!!, and all of your other craigslist finds! Absolutely stunning! I'm sure friend is thrilled! Well done!!! And lastly, I am still chuckling over your photos and confession on LBD...hysterical!!! :)

That was so much fun going through all 6 weeks at once...almost made it look like it was easy! ;) I totally remember following along last year, and am just as blown away seeing it all a second time. You gots skills, my dear!!! xoxoxoxo

LOVE THE NEW DECOR!! I have a question about the upholstered headboards. We just purchased one and I love it but I am not sure if the mattress is suppose to cover some of the fabric on the headboard, I Would like more of it to show but not sure if thats just how its suppose to be or if it should butt up right where the fabric starts from the metal legs? Need Help! thanks!

Hi Terri, If you scroll down to the fifth photo you can get a peek of ours, the mattress is right at the bottom of the fabric. Since mattresses come in different heights that will determine how high it sits. I've used D-Rings attached to the back of a headboard before to hang it directly on the wall at the height I desired. There was some space between the bottom of the headboard and mattress but my pillows covered it up. That might be a solution for you. Good luck!

Hi Amanda, It is oatmeal, but I recently ordered one for a client and the color was off. Not sure if it was a bad dye lot?? The good news is shipping and returns are free, they will pick up from your location. Another good option is to pick up at your local store, you could check it out and return there if you weren't happy with the color. Good Luck!
